Lieberman REALLY sucks!

The potential for a constitutional crisis here and now is real, with congressional interventions, presidential vetoes, and Supreme Court decisions. If there was ever a moment for nonpartisan cooperation to agree on a process that will respect both our personal opinions about this war and our nation’s interests over the long term, this is it.

Right. And who, exactly, is provoking the crisis? Who has been provoking it with torture, illegal detentions, illegal wiretaps, etc., etc.?

But at this difficult juncture, at this moment when a real battle, a critical battle is being waged in Baghdad, as we face a brutal enemy who attacked us on 9/11 and wants to do it again, let us not just shout at one another, but let us reach out to one another to find that measure of unity that can look beyond today’s disagreements and secure the nation’s future and the future of all who will follow us as Americans.

You didn't really intend to conflate Iraq with 9/11, did you, Joe? Joe? And, being a responsible Senator, you have read the National Intelligence Estimates that say the war on Iraq is harming the overall war against terrorism, haven't you? Joe?
